Understanding Voltage Drop: Calculating Dropped Volts With Easy Math/Numbers ⚡ Cars Simplified

Voltage drop is an important concept to understand when you start to diagnose automotive electrical issues. A lot of what you'll be working with will have one load per circuit, so one component tends to have about 99% voltage drop, but if there is damage to the wiring causing resistance elsewhere, what would that look like? This video covers the math of voltage drop using easy-to-work-with numbers so that the concepts will be focused on.

In upcoming lessons, we will move away from the whiteboard and do some real world voltage drop testing.
